Tater Reynolds of Florien, LA., weighed an 11.48 pounder to take the first place grand prize package valued at $150,000 in the 41st Annual Sealy Big Bass Splash held April 2527 on Sam Rayburn.
Reynolds took home a fully rigged Phoenix bass boat, RAM truck and $10,000, plus another $7,380 in hourly cash for the four bass he took to the scales over the course of the three-day event. He banked an additional $1,500 from Bass Cash Bash for the 11 pounder.
Reynolds said he caught three of his money fish, including the tournament winner, on a $100 nineinch crappie pattern glide bait guided by forward-facing sonar. The fourth hit a jighead minnow. All were caught 10-18 feet down around timber and brush piles in 20-24 feet of water.
